Monarchs and other butterflies are constantly attracted to the flowers of a large Jatropha shrub in my front yard. This presented the opportunity to watch hundreds of butterflies in flight around and perched on the shrub. First Day of Spring resulted in a wonderful series of Butterfly and Jatropha shrub paintings.

The original First Day of Spring is acrylic and mixed media rendered on 310 gm Arches Aquarelle Rag.

Margaret,
Thank you for the wonderful comment. One of the things that I really enjoy in art is strong vibrant color. It was a pleasant surprise when I saw the bold bright color in your work plus I love nature.
Thanks again for the compliment.
